  • Notes
  • St. James Upright Eight Receiver

    Someone had to do it! And here it is! A most novel, entirely different circuit, an upright assembly. You can do anything with it, frame it, place it in your Victrola, put it in a bookcase, carry it with you wherever you go, on a train, boat, auto, or camp, it in your car, or place it in a neat highboy console in the most sumptuous living room. Its varied uses and its easy portability make it truly the most desired of all radio circuits. But on top of all this, the St. James Upright-8 is a receiver of exceptional merit. Its clear tones, its great selectivity and its long, range put it in a class with any radio set, besides having distinctive qualities and features all its own. For true radio reception, the St. James Upright-8 is an astonishing radio innovation.
